1750 Craddock Way

1750 Craddock Ranch offers a unique opportunity to own a 57+ acres of Central Texas Hill Country surrounded on ALL sides by Purgatory Creek Natural Area. This protected greenbelt is part of the larger San Marcos Greenbelt Alliance trail system and ensures the property will maintain its natural charm for years to come. This particular ranch has ag-exemptions in place that allow for exceptionally low taxes and low cost of ownership. Ranch features 2 homes (2bed/1bath each), multiple out-buildings, cattle shoots, fencing, and stock tank. The landscape features a combination of wide-open pastures, mature woodlands and wet-weather creeks.

Full engineering report, environmental study, and recent ALTA survey are available in the documents section. A comprehensive Site Investigation Report by Mahoney Engineering outlines the feasibility of future development and possible subdivision of large lots. The property lies within the full-purpose jurisdiction of the City of San Marcos and is currently zoned Future Development (FD), a transitional zoning classification that currently allows for low-intensity use.

While there may be long-term development potential, it would require significant investment in infrastructure and entitlement processes. As such, this property is best suited for buyers looking to preserve natural beauty, invest in a long-term land-hold, or create a one-of-a-kind private homesteads with unmatched access to the San Marcos trail system.

Secondary address is 1661 Valencia Way. Access is via private easement through park. Property has long-term tenants to cover taxes and basic maintenance. Please contact listing broker with any questions or to schedule a showing. (HCAD PIDs R18829 / R85397)
